Givenchy is bringing sexy back with its Spring/Summer 2017 Bag Collection which features and showcases one-of-a-kind and unique bag silhouettes.

Riccardo Tisci, the Creative Director behind it revealed that the collection is a remarkable celebration of femininity. Embracing an all-around feminine and soft curve theme, Tisci’s anatomical silhouettes perfectly blends the geometrical precision of customizing the sensuality of jersey & silk, carefully and meticulously molding his ideal woman’s body in the form of creative luxury bags.

With a number of bags showcased in this collection, there are two, which caught our attention. First off the chart is this Shopping Bag in Black Mesh with Interior Bag in Purple Crocodile Embossed Leather.

This particular bag is an instant grabber with its chic and unique design. It is made up of mesh which makes the bag transparent so it’s easier to figure out which part should you be looking for if you’re reaching for a particular thing placed inside. If this isn’t enough to make you go crazy, it also has an internal pouch made from crocodile leather, perfect for storing your smartphone, wallet and your coin purse. Lastly, what made our hearts skipped a bit would be the innovative and well-constructed handles, which are made from a leather handle and a metal support handle attached to it which makes it easier to carry around.

What do you think of it? Do you honestly believe that it’s a good go-to shopping bag you’ll be reaching for before leaving the house?

Second one that appealed to us would be this pyramid-shaped shoulder bag in Black Grained Leather. Did you know that pyramid designs are always a part of Givenchy’s tradition, designed by Riccardo Tisci? With its fun and unique shape, this minimalistic shoulder bag is an ideal everyday bag since it can safely hold all your essentials.

Like many an A-lister, Kate Beckinsale is largely immune to designer whims. You won't see her carrying many bags du jour, but at the same time, everything in her extensive handbag collection demands your attention. She has loved the Givenchy Pandora style in particular for several years now and continues to carry it regularly, even as celeb tastes in general have started to angle more towards Gucci or The Row.

While it remains one of my personal faves, the Pandora has admittedly been much less visible in the last year or two. Kate's love for the Pandora persists, however. Kate is a frequent flier in our celeb handbag roundups, as well as a frequent flier in general--a great many of these shots were taken outside of LAX. Those not taken outside of LAX were likely snapped in front of a of celeb-friendly LA restaurant, or during a recent NY press tour. Here are the eight recent examples of Kate's dedication to her precious Pandoras.

Who else could easily combine oriental influences, haute couture-esque vibes and Club Kid reminiscences in one collection, if not Riccardo Tisci? With silhouettes that radiate his signature refined ethos, and a few pieces that got inspired by a softened version of motocross apparel, the newest Givenchy resort 2017 collection treats us to a sophisticated, yet cutting edge glamour that will surely give us something to talk about for the next days.

By creating his Givenchy cruise 2017 line-up, Tisci also brought out his own, (sub-) urban-chic version of the high/low trend that is all the rage now, filtering most of his proposals through a youthful, street-style lens that makes everything look both conceptual and unconventional at the same time.

Tisci, who used to work hard and play hard during the Nineties, and is a self-proclaimed rave party-habitué, used his knowledge of the club culture to better combine it with the haute couture fashion he currently spends most of his time on. He managed to prove this way that one doesn’t necessarily have to give up on his personality when interested in high fashion.

As the designer declared, fashion is a matter of identity as well, and wearing something that we recognize as part of our past or current persona/personality may exude a sense of peace and harmony (not to mention the fact that it can boost self-confidence as well). “Even young generations of women, in a moment of crisis, want to buy something that they recognize. So identity is the key,” he explained.

To fully embrace this mood, Tisci shot his Givenchy resort 2017 lookbook in Naples, an Italian city that, as broadly known, could be regarded as the epitome of contrasts. From exquisite historical buildings to abandoned streets, Naples perfectly embodies the line-up’s spirit, which recalls a person who is trapped between two worlds that he loves equally.

Like the city of Naples, the collection’s contrasts are greatly accentuated by the lookbook’s setting, making the shots look like artistic photos per se rather than making up a fashion editorial. As Tisci described, the collection goes “towards the dark, but with the romanticism as well.”

The line-up, which comprises men’s proposals as well, could be divided into two different themes, both of which are united by the same contrasts. On the one hand we have the beauty of soft feminine details, frills and pastel colors that meets street style with all its sharper lines, textural fabrics and darker colors giving a sense of ease to the entire collection.

On the other hand, we can enjoy high doses of elegance, here filtered through the underground music scene movement, and represented by sophisticated mannish tailored suits combined with dramatic platform shoes and geometric embellishments. This theme is the one that probably gives the collection its edgiest, funkiest attitude, at the same time offering designs that could easily transition form nighttime to daytime.

Layered lightweight dresses get a sporty, eased-up twist thanks to the cropped jackets, while psychedelic prints come combined with high platform shoes, kimono sleeves and mesh inserts. Egyptian motifs from the fall 2016 runaway remind us about Tisci’s knack for busy patterns, while clean-cut coats and bolero jackets balance the pieces with something wearable on a daily basis, recalling Givenchy’s legacy.

It absolutely looks like Givenchy is bringing its A-game in the bag industry especially with its Shark Mini Leather Tote that comes in 4 different colors that you can choose from. Knowing that a woman can never have too many bags, the creative team behind Givenchy bags decided to give women 4 color choices: olive green, black, grey and another black shade with the additional studs and embellishments to it.

These little bag accessories, with that iconic shark-tooth as their lock, will do your outfits and ensembles justice for they are simple and unique. They do not steal the spotlight but rather they compliment and complement your ensembles. Perfect for that romantic first date, this bag will surely have a lasting impression. It has the following features and details: made in Italy, made from calf leather, has detachable, adjustable shoulder strap, turn-lock fastening, suede lining, internal zipped and slot pockets and protective feet. It has the following measurements: 16 x 25 x 10 cm (H x W x D), priced at $1790 USD or €1290.

Not be confused with the Obsedia (which it kinda looks like), or even the Antigona Envelope Clutch that has almost the same austere lines, here’s another bag from Givenchy that’s more a workhorse of a briefcase than say, a pretty shoulder sling.

Known simply as the Shark, which I believe is a reference to its signature shark toothed-shaped twist lock clasp, this one in Large measures some 46 cm across by 30 cm in height, ample enough for say, a MacBook, work files and then some. Not offered with the option of a shoulder sling (a small nay in my books), you carry it either in your hand or over the shoulder, with a drop of almost 20 cm more than enough even to fit the thickest of shoulders.

Lined in suede with 3 sizeable pockets for all your bits and bobs, this one, in croc-embossed leather is also my favourite and retails for GBP1690. Now available online via Net-A-Porter, you could also consider the one in Medium (39 cm by 27 cm) in white croc-embossed leather (GBP1590). The ones in this size also come with the shoulder sling, which is an added bonus. Or just consider the medium one in plain black leather which is the same in terms of the size (and the added sling) as the former but sells for just GBP1350.

In other words, if you’re looking for a reasonably-sized (or much larger) workhorse,this is one bag you should add to your wish list.

I noticed that when it comes to popular replica handbags like the Givenchy Antigona replica bag, people are more likely to stumble upon disappointing websites.

Replica sites want to sell, of course, so they’ll lure their customers with low prices and popular designs. But just like this Luxurycheapbagsuk.com review shows, things are not always what they seem…or what we hope them to be!

A friend of mine bought the Givenchy Antigona knockoff from one of these replica sites but the good part was that she was able to return it. Experiences like this can ruin all replica bags for us and that’s why you choose the site carefully:

“Hi Eva!

I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of this site before since I didn’t see a Luxurycheapbagsuk.com review on your blog and that’s why I wanted to share my story.

I purchased a Givenchy Antigona replica from them since I found it to be quite affordable and I liked that there are photos and description for each bag. But the whole experience has left a rather bad taste in my. They offer credit card among the payment methods they list on their site but I found out upon Checkout that Mastercard payments are actually not supported, so I was foolish enough to go with Western Union instead

The bag arrived 9 days after I made the payment (weekend included) and even though I don’t pretend to be an expert, it’s really bad! It doesn’t hold its shape at all because the leather is really thin and the logo pad is way too flat! Also, the hardware felt really cheap and I’m sure the color would fade off after just a few wears.

I contacted them through email, gave my order number and explained that the reason why I want to exchange it is because it doesn’t look like in their photos! But their exchange policy doesn’t support this reason, just defective or damaged replica bags!

The customer service was extremely disappointing because they answered very slowly but in the end I was able to return the bag, even though I had to pay all the shipping fees. I sent you some photos for you and your readers, I think you’ll understand better

I do not want to use them ever again and I already warned my friends too!

But I still want this Givenchy Antigona replica bag, can you please help me find a good one Eva?”

Thank you for sending this Luxurycheapbagsuk.com review, it’s been a while since I’ve seen one of their bags! You made the right decision to return this Givenchy replica bag, it was really ugly!

The logo tab was indeed too flat, the interior leather tab was not even straight, the protective leather tabs on the bottom were not even, the handle tabs look really bad and the overall shape doesn’t do any justice to the real Antigona we all love! Ugh, why do replica Givenchy bags like this even exist?
